While studying the SCJP I typed out a lot of the threading code because my brain doesn't process long code dumps very well. This code is taken from the Sanghera book, and is supposed to be a trivial example of wait/notify.



The output is supposed to be:



Which it is, 99%+ of the time. The thing is if I keep running it, eventually I will get this:



Thought it would be a good exercise to try to fix this, but I'm stumped and don't see the problem with the original code. Any help?
Just took the SCJP 6. I never took the 5 exam, but used two SCJP5 books to study from. I'm used to practice tests being harder than the real thing, but I thought the practice tests were actually easier.

The main reason is that I would say about 25% of the test was APIs and 25% was threading. I don't know what I was expecting, but most of the practice tests were focused much more on the language than specific APIs. The threading questions on the real thing were much harder than the practice exams.
Hello all. I just passed the SCJP, and while in "cram" mode though I would pick up the SCJA just for resume padding. I assumed the SCJA was just a subset of the SCJP but looking through this forum, it looks like I'm wrong. There is no UML on the SCJP exam, and I know next to nothing about the overall J2EE framework outside of the little corner I work with. Looks like I have a bit more studying to do, but not quite sure what.

Is there a comprehensive list somewhere of topics that are on the SCJA that are not on the SCJP?
